Redesign 2: Siege Tank

Oh man every time im looking to your Signature, im really so impress, wow, i really love your Signature, and your Avatar also, wow.
Anyway i like the seige tank in Starcraft 2 that they had been introduceD to us. nO need to redesign.

Peace :thumbup:

 

I like the new siege tank.

 

yeah gj man....

even though i like the sc2 design =P

 

tank mode i like but i prefer the siege mode in sc2

 

wow my god you have amazing skills. In my opinion i dun mind how they transform into seige mod (the original way or the Sc2 one) but i like this one better. Nice job. When is ur ultralisk vs archon sig going to be up?

 

AWSOME!
That siege tank looks much much better then the one in SC2. Seriosly, you should work at Blizzard. owerup: owerup:

 

In fact, I like the X form.. And the whole design of the tank.
But I would like your designs in the game too.
As I see your units are coloured more metallic, so if blizzard wants to change, they must change all unit and building couours to make it the same with yours.

 

imo, the SC2 tank has the looks... the current siege mode looks cooler

 

absolutely great!
Metalic and heavy!
Great work!
owerup:

 

nice job! Best SC2 tank so far!

 

nice job archlimit, the height of tanks feels quite low, can you a marine next to it to give us a sense of scale?

 

Archlimit: the SC2 community is really lucky to have individuals like you push themselves, as a voice for the community, to do things that the average poster cannot do. These models show the potential "redesigns" that help further the debate.

On topic, the siege mode X factor i originally thought was becuase the old Siege tank from SC would always pivot at a given angel (due to sprites) before transforming. An X form would kind of eliminate that.
The SC2 Siege tank is noticeablly larger than the bunker (something i disapprove of)..and the main weakness of the design was the "lippish" design of the turret. It's interesting that you've opted for the tri-barrel design for siege mode. I've kind of that it would be awesome if the siege-mode would have a special 1-barrel, leaving the dual barrels for regular tank mode.
I'm a fan of the SC design, but the turret always looked like it had the colour (your alliegence) bar that runs across the turret. I suppose it's because the tank fires plasma instead of shells, but those are small details.

The transformation looks complex, but it's becuase you hid the Siege-mode turret in the front base of the siege tank (which again leaves an empty gap during siege mode). I really like how the bracing-legs come out of the sides of the tank.

The rear of the tank looks very acceptable and tasteful, it's just that front of the tank looks too large for my tastes.
Just for a rant, the turrets in tank mode seem too "slim" to fire futuristic tank shells. Im' thinking at least as fat as thor's turrets.

-- I'd think that siege mode would raise the overall height of the vehicle, as you'd want as much line-of-sight as possible, and for range issues. A thing i liked about SC2 siege mode is that the tanks feel to have raised a bit (or at least hasn't sunk down)

The tank is elongated (like SC) but for the design of the Siege tank it might as well be as square as possible (just beacuse it's meant to sit there and fire at anything that comes close).

 

instead of totally redesigning the tank, why dont you slightly modify the blizzard redesign siege so that it doesnt go x mode

 

this should be front page!

edit...Oh it allready is

 

NICE JOB ARCHLIMIT. your unbelievable. we should meet someday. ^^

uhm... i pick the current siege tank just because it looks more HIGH TECH and powerful.

make a high tech siege tanks. the metal should look tough. ^^

 

It's a 170mm gun... just like this one http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/dprk/m-1978-170.htm
It's not on a ship, it's a self propelled artillery vehicle. And look, no feet.

Siege tanks don't fire their siege cannon while moving and don't fire their main cannon while moving. Self propelled artillery of today does not fire while moving and yet it also does not have feet.

This makes no sense in physics.

Oh? And where did you find this out?

Just because I'm not kissing his *** in my post does not mean I do not like the model. I think it's a great model that happens to have flaws which, by the way, ArchLimit said were actual flaws in his response. Most people have no idea how to do 3D **** so they think it's so cool when someone makes something. I know how it's done so that "magic" is completely lost on me.

So, stop "standing up for" people who don't need standing up for.

 

ArchLimit, U DA MAN! Nice job, once again Great redesign.

- Edit - Almost forgot teh power! :thumbup: owerup: owerup: :thumbup:

 

Wow! This is really something.
I have nothing BAD to say about your work...

By the way, how do you do this stuff?

Can you post a TUTORIAL or something?

Thank you.

Here's a POWER-UP

POWER OVERHWHELMING

Cheat Enabled!

hehe... skiverz!

 

Yay! I really like the way the turret attaches to the main cannon within the bulkhead. That was cool. But In SC1 didn't it have 3 leg thingies? like a tripod type arrangement? There was one in the back as well as the ones on the side, I think your design with a tripod arrangement of support legs would be all killah, nothin iller

 

yeah...can u like..tell us the programs u use to make this uber pwage stuff?

once again gj brother =P

lol...
